Collisions: Engineering a Safe Ride
In this hands-on lesson, students design a safety device (car/seatbelt) that can keep an egg (passenger) safe during a collision. The goal is to protect the egg from cracking during a roll down a ramp into a wall. Students use the engineering design process to guide the construction. The materials used can vary depending on what you have access to and allows for creativity in design.

Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions
